Administration of anabolic steroids and several other products is prohibited in many sports organizations, including the Major League Baseball (MLB). Athletes who are caught using forbidden substances are sentenced to bans, fines, etc. However sportspersons know about these conditions, many of them continue using anabolic steroids and/or other forbidden drugs. As a result, certain sportspersons spoil their athletic reputation completely. Nonetheless, some athletes succeed, if even they are caught by anti-doping officers.
Let take the Dominican baseball player Melky Cabrera as an example. This athlete played baseball for San Francisco Giants. Melky Cabrera was considered to be one of the best baseball players. It was believed that he induced winning essentially. But after he tested positive for a steroid, he was sentenced to a 50-game suspension.
Melky Cabrera put efforts to change the decision and appealed it. He claimed that a dietary supplement was responsible for his positive. Some persons desired to help him in that situation. Thus, a fake website was formed. An advertisement for non-existing supplement was posted. But the trick was unmasked. The baseball player had to serve the suspension.
While he was banned, the San Francisco Giants realized that they could win without him.
Recently the Dominican baseball player obtained a $16 million contract. He will play for the Toronto Blue Jays.
As you see, usage of steroids couldn’t destroy the athletic career of the Dominican baseball player. He continues to play baseball professionally and get essential sums of money.
This is just an example that manifests that application of forbidden drugs doesn’t affect athletic careers in several cases.
